Subjects covered will include setting description, dialogue, internal monologue, and action.
Courses:
Each course consists of four live video presentations presented live and online on Wednesdays (Jan. 3, Jan. 10, Jan. 17, Jan. 24, 2018) at 5:00 p.m. PT (8:00 p.m. ET), along with the recordings of each class.
